So Opera, Firefox and Chrome would have to use Webkit for _javascript_.

Two problems with your statement: 
 1. This is about iOS apps (for the iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad), not about generic browsers.   Apple doesn't allow browsers other than Safari on the iPhone, so it's a moot point.

 2. Google Chrome *does* use WebKit: http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/webmasters-faq.html#renderie
